Any Word Yet On Mendenhall?

[cobrajet]

I heard it could be an ACL. That would be a blow to the Steelers.

He'll probably have the official MRI today. Tomlin even said yesterday that he didn't think the diagnosis would be good.

I'm sure Dennis Allen, Von Miller and Dumervil are listening.

Great news for the Denver...

Bad news for Mendenhall..

He has torn ACL-like symptoms..... Or so I've heard.

When I was on the Sun, I saw a headline that said he has a torn ACL... then I got kicked out because I already used up my 15 pages. >.<

This made me laugh but since we know how the Steelers treat injuries this is probably what Tomlin will say since everything is "insert injury here"-like symptoms lol.

Redman is a more than capable backup. I wasn't big on Mendenhall anyway. This won't be a setback for the Steelers.

[JO_75]

it's Official: Issac Redman will be the starting running back for the Steelers in the playoffs.

I'd be suprised if he was retained by the Steelers next year.

I think he is a free agent and just has not been a good RB , tied in with his comments last year, I will try to elaborate when I get home.

I was just curious.. I didn't know he was a FA next year, and I'm too lazy to look lol. But good points. Wonder if Dwyer will be the new feature back

[Fricknmaniac]

Not to mention how far the Steelers are going to be over the cap, they're going to have to cut starters left and right to get under the cap, and probably won't be able to re-sign anyone for anything other than the veteran minimum.
